A free energy principle for generic quantum systems
The Free Energy Principle (FEP) proposes that random dynamical systems minimize an upper bound on surprisal through weak coupling. This paper reformul…
Active inference, Bayesian optimal design, and expected utility
The abstract discusses active inference, linked to the free energy principle, as a method for understanding certain random dynamical systems resemblin…
Trust as Extended Control: Active Inference and User Feedback During Human-Robot Collaboration
The paper explores the concept of trust in human-robot collaboration (HRC), emphasizing its necessity for seamless interaction. It reviews existing li…
Active Inference Tree Search in Large POMDPs
The paper presents a new method called Active Inference Tree Search (AcT) for efficient planning in Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (PO…
Active Inference: Demystified and Compared – original publication September 24, 2019
The paper "Active Inference: Demystified and Compared" explores how active inference provides a foundational understanding of autonomous agents in dyn…
Sophisticated Inference
The paper by Friston et al. presents a framework of active inference, which elucidates sentient behavior through a principled lens. By integrating inf…
Markov Blankets in the Brain
The paper explores the concept of Markov blankets in the context of self-organizing systems, particularly focusing on neuronal systems. It discusses h…
